The launch of Bird unleashed passions. Comments are flourishing on social networks. The first users criss-cross the Kirchberg district. Luxembourg-City’s Mayor expressed her opinion on RTL 5Minutes. There is a strained atmosphere in the city. Bird chose Silicon Luxembourg to speak out after launching the service on Tuesday.

“We were excited when we received our business permit in August, and we told the city about our intention to launch before we did so. Bird’s mission is to help improve congestion and air quality in cities by giving people an alternative transport option to the car, and looking at the number of people who have already tried our service in Luxembourg there is clearly a big demand here. We’re very much looking forward to meeting with the Mayor and addressing any of her concerns.” – Bird spokesperson

???????? Donc #Bird et ses #trottinettes #électriques sont plus fortes que la volonté de #LydiePolfer et la #VilleDeLuxembourg… pour rappel en juillet, la bourgmestre n’en voulait pas… en octobre, il y a 360 trottinettes à #Luxembourg… https://t.co/yXfLhVjj5y

Der amerikanische E-Scooter-Verleiher „Bird“ platzierte offenbar über Nacht einige seiner Leih-Roller auf dem Kirchberg – sehr zum Unmut der Stadtverwaltung. Ist die Aktion nur ein Marketing-Gag?https://t.co/evtZaF9sGV
